FX Yachting - Luxury Crewed Catamaran Charters

What FX Yachting - Luxury Crewed Catamaran Charters does

FX Yachting is a privately held luxury crewed yacht charter brokerage headquartered in Athens, Greece, operating as the Crewed Charters Department of parent company Fyly Yachting. The company acts as Central Agency for what it describes as Europe's largest managed crewed catamaran fleet, with approximately 62 crewed yachts and 40+ directly listed vessels accessible through its platform. Its core offering is a brokerage service arranging fully crewed charters across five categories (sailing catamarans, motor yachts, sailing yachts, gulets/motor sailers, and power catamarans) and five major charter regions: the Mediterranean (Greece, Italy, Croatia, France, Turkey, Spain), the Caribbean (eleven island nations), South East Asia (Thailand, Indonesia), the Red Sea (Egypt), and a worldwide partner broker network.

The technology platform is powered by the ViewYacht API, which enables clients to search and filter the full charter market including off-market inventory by yacht type, destination, weekly cost, guest count, and length, supported by an online enquiry-list cart. Revenue is generated primarily through commissions on charter bookings, with typical weekly charter fees ranging from approximately €10,000 for entry-level catamarans to over €200,000 for top-end superyachts, plus a separate B2B yacht management revenue stream for vessel owners covering charter placement, crew administration, accounting, marketing, technical management, and insurance.

FX Yachting serves high-net-worth individuals and families, corporate groups, celebration/occasion charters, and yacht owners through a consultative, broker-led sales motion delivered by a multilingual team of senior and junior charter brokers. Its go-to-market combines direct broker relationships, a self-serve website with enquiry functionality, content marketing via in-house magazines and SEO-optimized destination guides, and a global partner broker network.

Revenue model

1. Yacht Charter Fees (Crewed Charter): FX Yachting earns commissions from arranging crewed yacht charters. Charters are typically quoted on a weekly basis (Saturday to Saturday) and priced per yacht per week. The revenue model is commission-based broker income from yacht owners/operators. FX Yachting operates as the Crewed Charters Department of Fyly Yachting and manages the largest crewed catamaran fleet in Europe, acting as Central Agency for the fleet. Charters follow either an all-inclusive model or a plus-expenses (APA) model, with APA typically 25-40% of the base charter fee for larger yachts and 20-25% for sailing vessels. VAT of 24% typically applies to Greek yacht charters.
